A330 captain salary in Europe 2026

Captain pay at 22 airlines in Europe flying the Airbus A330 runs from €48k to €348k a year gross, with a median of €141k. The highest figure in this list is at SWISS International Air Lines. Pay is set per airline, not per aircraft type: most airlines pay one scale across their fleet, and where a scale differs by aircraft (often more on widebodies) the airline page shows it.

Gross yearly pay in euros, converted at current exchange rates. Monthly pay is counted 12 times, hourly rates at 900 paid hours a year. Figures come from collective agreements, official airline packages, the aviation press and, where nothing better exists, unofficial figures (marked). Updated 3 Nov 2026.
